Success with Abit GB-80/Celeron D

 

Hi, I have a successfully installed osx native bye only replaying the oah750d.

 

There was two things that didn’t work, 1st the AC97 soundcard I installed the kext from Darwin then the sound was ok, 2st the onboard nic was not working so I had to put in a RTL8139.

 

I have done some benchmarking with Photoshop cs2.

My PC with 1GB ram and a Celeron 2.54 running at 4.0GHz was 2.5 times faster in Windows XP then in OSX but only 20% slower then a PowerMac G5 1.8 Ghz. And I believe that my pc is cheaper then a used PowerMac G5 and faster then a new Mac mini.

 

I also tried my Thinkpad T41 without SSE3 but it runs slow and without the wifi it’s no fun.

 

Thanks to all for your work.

hi, dude, does this mobo work fine for EVERYTHING? i mean, soundcard line-in/out( i need not only the sound, but also the microphone ), nic, QE/CI/OGL etc?

and you haven't patched the oah750?

 

i'm deciding which cpu&mobo should i buy right now, IG-80 so i can overclock easier or Asrock so i can save some money :)
